Windows 7 - I have multiple hard drives with my operating system on a solid state drive and everything else on disk drives. My oldest drive (G) contains the majority of my applications and it has started not loading properly. As it’s rather old, I wanted to just copy the data to one of the larger drives (E) that has lots of open space, but isn’t blank and contains mostly documents.
Is there a way to copy the G drive to the E drive and still have Windows be able to find the applications installed on G? A simply copy/paste ain’t gonna cut it.
on the physical drive that is E you could create a logical drive by creating a partition and formatting that. then copy all of the contents of G to this new logical drive. then remove the physical drive G and name the new logical drive G.
do you know about partitions?
you do want to know what you are doing to not loose your data on E. this is not something to stumble through or guess at.
